CORRIGENDUM

Lynchings, racial threat, and whites’ punitive views

toward blacks∗

In “Lynchings, racial threat, and whites’ punitive views toward Blacks” (Stewart, Mears, Warren,

Baumer, & Arnio, 2018), a coding error led to misclassification of 11 counties and in turn resulted

in an “N” of 90 rather than of 79 for the “southern” sample. The updated tables and figures rely on

use of the correct sample of 79 counties and, by extension, inclusion of 1,301 individuals rather than

of 1,441 individuals. Although the coefficients in some models differ nominally from the original

published results, the main statistical and substantive results remain the same. Readers are referred to

the updated tables 1, 2, 3, and 4, as well as to figures 1 and 2, in the online supporting information for

the correct values. Updated numeric values for text-only statistics appear as a separate memo in the

online supporting information.
